They should have Touch ID on the comfort access door handle like the new MacBook Air

Afaik you'll also be able to send your key remotely to another person's compatible phone, which could be a useful thing. It just depends on your use cases really.

Not to be argumentative but what do you miss about it?

I use Apple Wallet for as much as I can. Everything from actual paying, food store loyalty card, airline tickets, movie tickets, etc. Assuming the tech continues to be good and secure it sure makes life easier and more organized.

You can't take your key swimming...

You can have both with this option.
